Effects of melon yellow spot orthotospovirus infection on the preference and developmental traits of melon thrips, Thrips palmi, in cucumber.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Melon yellow spot orthotospovirus (MYSV), a member of the genus Orthotospovirus, is an important virus in cucurbits. Thrips palmi is considered the most serious pest of cucurbits because it directly damages and indirectly transmits MYSV to the plant. The effects of MYSV-infected plants on the development time, fecundity, and preference of the thrips were analyzed in this study. Our results showed that the development time of male and female thrips did not differ significantly between MYSV-infected and non-infected cucumbers. The survival rate of thrips in non-infected and MYSV-infected cucumbers were not significantly different. In a non-choice assay, T. palmi adults were released on non-infected and MYSV-infected cucumbers and allowed to lay eggs. The number of hatched larvae did not significantly differ between non-infected and MYSV-infected cucumbers. In a choice assay, MYSV had no detectable effect on the number of adult thrips and preceding hatched larvae. In a pull assay, the settling rate of thrips on the released plant did not differ significantly when the adult thrips were released to non-infected or MYSV infected cucumbers for any cucumber cultivar. Based on our results, we propose that the effects of MYSV-infected cucumbers on the development time, fecundity, or preference of T. palmi may not be an important factor in MYSV spread between cucumbers.
